It would be very convenient to buy weekly produce without having to wade through food and trinket stands.
It never seemed like an insurmountable difficulty to identify local food vendors at the Maku'u Market, make your purchases, then drive home. I've always been pretty good at quickly recognizing the difference between lemons, limes, and slightly used tennis balls though.
Just out of curiosity ted, in order to assist with a quick selection process at home, do you keep your kitchen partitioned in a manner similar to your Maku'u market suggestion, with multiple refrigerators? Carefully dividing your purchases between them, one for the storage of fresh fruit and vegetables, another containing only packaged food items like milk and fish, and a dedicated third unit for beer and other less essential beverages?
By the way, sorry to hear this "weepy old woman" you mentioned in a earlier post "starts making me vomit after awhile" for some reason. I'm just guessing, but it sounds like one of those new west coast craft beers. The lower case brand name hints at a micro brew label trying to appeal to the hipster market. Hope it wasn't a bad batch. If not, but your temporary illness resulted instead due to quantity rather than quality, check out the Budweiser, you can get pretty much the same results at much lower price point.
- Be pleasant to inefficient workers; give them undeserved promotions. - Work slowly. - Refer all matters to committees for "further study and consideration. - Hold conferences. - Make travel as inconvenient as possible. - Haggle over precise wordings of communications. - Advocate “caution.” Be “reasonable” and avoid haste.
